    Celestial nav is almost 2K year old technology and art. Still I do not have any mastery of it. I don't understand, how looking up at night, and seeing a star , tells you its name. Theu all look same. In Artillery school survey training, we had identify Kochab. I was clueless. Could not do it. Still cant. Non one single damned NCO instructor could explain to me how to do it.
